Figured I'd save @rameire the hassle of setting up the finale's thread - thanks for doing so many!
No Esteban Ocon for this race, with Jack Doohan taking his place.
"Next year is gonna be my year too"
We will see Lando.
Shame we only got it on the mini screen. Delighted he got him in the end.
Jesus crofty is like a radio DJ doing a “on this day in history…” spot.
Needy from hamilton
for a moment ? You’ve used every moment you can to shoehorn him into your coverage.
Eh why is there a place for Hamilton with the first 3? Not like he’s retiring.
Well done Gasly. I think he will finish 10th in the championship now.
Well done to Alpine too for finishing 6th in the Constructors Championship considering how badly they started the season.
Why is Hamilton getting his own spot
I’m looking forward to seeing it! They were the best team this year no doubt, but had a lot more wind tunnel time than red bull with them hamstrung cause of the overspend. How will they handle next year when Red Bull have more time than them?!? As will Ferrari and Mercedes. I think it’s going to be a cracker of a final season before the reg change.
because he is…
If he was retiring, fair enough, but I agree, he'll be here for another 2 years atleast…
Leclerc pissed off they didn't get that top spot...Sainz couldn't care less lol.
No spot for Kmag or Bottas
Does it matter he is 4th on track behind the top 3 makes sense :P
Its celebrating the longest driver/team partnership and maybe the most sucessful too so yeah its fine, also the sports biggest personality going to the biggest team. Get over it and you have till March to do that so…
When max leaves redbull will you be as sour?
F me some people on here will just hate hamiltion for anything…
Meh race with a good start Charles did well, Lando Controlled it, Max showed his true colours again. Would love to see a year of max gettin rotten luck that would be hilarious.
Congrats to Mclaren on the constructors they should of won it races ago tbf, but they did it, would of been hilarious if they lost it though.
If Perez is in that seat next year he either has dirt on the whole team or on Christian, its not money keeping him there thats for sure.
Oh this swooning over Hamilton is insufferable.
Charles looks like he cant wait to partner Lewis next year…
and I’d like to the academy…
They are more losing their jobs than retiring, Plus aint bottas gonna be a reserve for Merc
The last (and as far as I'm aware only) time F1 did something like that was when Vettel retired - emphasis on retired, not changing teams.
The one positive from it, is it gave hive a spot to do some donut's…
145 million dollar race for McL.
This whole Hamilton thing would be really decent if he was retiring,they're over egging it a bit now...the only thing making it enjoyable is knowing how much some lads are at home raging about it 😂😂
Yeah bit of salt and vinegar for those chips would be nice 😝
Jeez - will Sky ever lay off the hammy love bombing. He’s not going away . . . . .
Not surprising as Leclerc is Ferraris golden child
Respect to Leclerc, he didn't want to talk about Hamilton to Rosberg, only about Sainz and how well they worked together at Ferrari.
I know he is a dickhead, but I cant help liking Zak Brown.
Is Lewis joining Checo in announcing a post-season retirement regardless of contract?
Its a bit bizarre.
Lewis isn't retiring either?
Hamilton offered his hand to Leclerc after the race as Leclerc waiting to do Rosberg interview. Leclerc shakes hands but the look he gives Hamilton you could read his mind " Wait till next year when you're in red , I will drive rings round you and make you look like a f**k**g novice ". .. and he will
It was embarrassing when Zhou got a special spot in China. It's embarrassing that Lewis did now.
If sky were this bad when he's just moving teams (and not to a back of the grid team either), imagine how they'll be when he retires...
Crofty going mad about how well Lewis raced, ignoring that Charles started behind him and finished ahead of him.
